A pilot study highlighted their effectiveness in managing febrile neutropenia in cancer patients, reducing acute care visits, and improving patient quality of life. These tools enhance the care team’s ability to deliver personalized and efficient care while promoting health equity. Key Takeaways: ? Enhanced Symptom Management: ePROs and wearable devices allow for proactive monitoring and management of symptoms, helping reduce hospital visits and improve treatment adherence and patient outcomes. ? Care Team Benefits: Technology simplifies the reporting process, enabling care teams to focus on clinical decisions while reducing bottlenecks and minimizing provider bias. ?
